Writing I: Writing an Account

Imagine you have recently met someone from another planet and spent about an hour with him or her. Write an account describing your feelings and reactions.

An Encounter with Someone from Another Planet

Meeting someone from another planet was an experience beyond my imagination. At first, I could not believe it and I was a little scared, but as we started to communicate, my fear slowly turned into excitement. The creature there was so different from any living being I had ever seen; I couldn't stop staring at him. Despite the language barrier, we managed to communicate through gestures and drawings. We exchanged information about our worlds, and I was amazed at how different their planet was from ours. The technology and resources they possessed were beyond anything we have on Earth. I felt privileged to have the opportunity to spend time with this being and learn about their world. It made me realize how much there is out there beyond our planet and how much we have yet to discover. I was left with surprise and curiosity, and I hope that one day we can establish a deeper connection with extraterrestrial life.
